Andrew Goldberg's documentary on the Armenian Genocide is not just a film but a pivotal exploration into one of the darkest chapters in human history. Through interviews, narration by Julianna Margulies, and often shocking photographs, the documentary meticulously documents the systematic deportation, rape, and murder of over a million Armenians during the early 20th century in the Ottoman Empire. It's a hard watch, filled with undeniable evidence and heart-wrenching testimonials, yet essential for understanding the extent of human cruelty and the dangers of historical denial.

Goldberg's approach is commendable for its balance, giving voice to the deniers only to expose the fragility and immorality of their arguments, making a compelling case against the continuous denial and minimization by the Turkish government and others. The film also doesn't shy away from discussing retaliatory Armenian terrorism in the latter half of the 20th century, presenting a comprehensive view of the long-lasting repercussions of such a massive tragedy.

The documentary's power lies not just in the graphic and emotional content but in its unwavering commitment to truth and remembrance. It's a must-watch for anyone interested in human rights, history, or the ongoing struggle against genocide denial. Despite its graphic nature, or perhaps because of it, the film is an essential educational tool, a tribute to the victims, and a stark reminder of the atrocities humans are capable of committing. Goldberg's work stands as a beacon of truth in an era of misinformation, making 'The Armenian Genocide' one of the most important documentaries of its time.
